Facilities

Multi – User Research Facilities

Central facilities in AMPEL are managed by a small group of research engineers, research associates, with technical support mainly from the central machine and electronics shops of the participating departments in the faculties of Science and Applied Science. Regular workshops and introductory courses are provided for the users. Users are supported and trained in the use of facilities by the facility managers. Outside users are welcome! The basic philosophy is that users should be able to carry out their own projects hereby also learning first hand about the possibilities as well as the limitations of modern techniques.
